Description of defect
LED is not blinking on some target boards.
Recently, following code has been added in this example code.
// Initialise the digital pin LED1 as an output
#ifdef LED1
DigitalOut led(LED1);
#else
bool led;
#endif
The #ifdef detective doesn't recognize typedefed LED1 symbol, so LED doesn't blink for some target boards such as NXP LPC1768, Renesas, Nordic, Maxim and other target board which declare LED symbol as typedef.
Typical decleration for typedef is as below.
typedef enum {
// snip
LED1 = PF4,
LED2 = PF5,
LED3 = PF6,
LED4 = PF7,
// snip
} PinName;
AFAIK, C/C++ preprocessor can only handle macros and arithmetic constant expressions.
